I went to see an KCC Spaniel today in a rescue centre today. It was heartbreaking. The dog was handed in to a dog pound in Wales and was due to be destroyed. Fortunately she was saved by the rescue centre last week.
This poor little dog was shaking so much with fear she could barely walk. She also has arthiritus, a grade 4/5 heart murmer, rotten teeth and isn't house trained. She is clearly an ex breeding dog who has been dumped. How can people let a dog get in this state?
I took my foster Cavalier in to meet her (he's here for a year). She liked him but he didn't seem happy- no waggy tail as normal. However it was pouring with rain and my foster dog really hates the rain.
I really don't know what to do. If it was just me I would take this dog home today. Despite shaking alot she tried to be friendly and was very sweet. However there are my 2 young children to think of and the foster dog who didn't seem to like her.
Sorry for rambling!
